    I don’t think dual boot has ever been a good solution (unless you also run one or both of the OS’s under the other in a VM).

    Like, if you are unsure about linux, trying it out, learning, whatever, you can just boot a live"cd", or maybe install it on an external (flash) drive.

    If you are kinda sure you want to switch, just nuke Windows; it’s easier to switch that way than to have everything on two systems, having to switch.

      That is until you want to switch and use mostly linux, but you have friends who want to play one of those few games that only works on windows

        The second windows isnt the only option for “all games without any effort”, it will be dead.

            I’ve been on Steam+Proton for more than 3 years now. So many many games are now supported. It is usually the DRM kernel anti-cheats that are Windoxez only tend to be the broken ones. I dont buy or care about games that run anti-cheat in Windoze kernel.
